Jonas Jenwald 5b94ed5487 Remove the disableCreateObjectURL option from web/app_options.js
Prior to PR 11601, the `disableCreateObjectURL` option was present on `getDocument` in the API, since it was (potentially) used when decoding JPEG images natively in the browser. Hence setting this option, which was done automatically using compatibility-code, were in some browsers necessary in order for e.g. JPEG images to be correctly rendered.

The downside of the `disableCreateObjectURL` option is that memory usage increases significantly, since we're forced to build and use `data:` URIs (rather than `blob:` URLs).
However, at this point in time the `disableCreateObjectURL` option is only necessary for *some* (non-essential) functionality in the default viewer; in particular:
 - The openfile functionality, used only when manually opening a new file in the default viewer.
 - The download functionality, used when downloading either the PDF document itself or its attached files (if such exists).
 - The print functionality, in the generic `PDFPrintService` implementation.

Hence neither the general PDF.js library, nor the *basic* functionality of the default viewer, depends on the `disableCreateObjectURL` option any more; which is why I'm thus proposing that we remove the option since using it is a performance footgun.

*Please note:* To not outright break currently "supported" browsers, which lack proper `URL.createObjectURL` support, this patch purposely keeps the compatibility-code to explicitly disable `URL.createObjectURL` usage *only* for browsers which are known to not work correctly.[1]

While it's certainly possible that there's additional, likely older, browsers with broken `URL.createObjectURL` support, the last time that these types of problems were reported was over *three* years ago.[2]
Hence in the *very* unlikely event that additional problems occur, as a result of these changes, we can either add a new case in the compatibility-code or simply declare the affected browser as unsupported.

[1] Which are IE11 (see issue 3977), and Google Chrome on iOS (see PR 8081).

[2] Given that `URL.createObjectURL` is used by default, you'd really expect more reports if these problems were widespread.
